Perplexity Comet

The Web Should Work For You We believe curiosity is a superpower. It’s the spark that propels humanity forward. Yet, the web—our greatest source of information—was never designed to nurture curiosity; instead we’ve been asked to “browse” it through a one-way lens. That’s why we made Comet. Comet gives curious minds a thought partner for every aspect of online life. Comet moves every tab or task into a simple space for asking more of the world. With Comet, the web becomes a tool of curiosity, h

Studio Trigger Anime ‘New Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt’ Is a Raunchy, Foul-Mouthed Riot

Somewhere between Cartoon Network’s super-powered girl mayhem in Powerpuff Girls and Netflix’s unfiltered sex-fueled comedy in Big Mouth, Neon Genesis Evangelion studio Gainax unleashed Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt into the world of animation in 2010. The series, which can be best described as what would happen if Powerpuff Girls were created with crass Adult Swim humor in mind, instantly became an anime cult touchstone with its brazen, raunchy comedy and balls-to-the-wall action. Now, Stud

Don’t Bother with a Desktop Monitor, This 15-Inch Portable Screen Is 10x Cheaper on Prime Day

A Third Interstellar Visitor Is Here, and Astronomers Might Know Where It Came From

After defending his PhD thesis on modeling interstellar objects on Monday, June 30, Matthew Hopkins intended to take some well-deserved time off. It would appear the universe had other plans for him. The very next day, the Atlas Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) telescope in Rio Hurtado, Chile, detected a mysterious object whizzing toward the Sun. Early observations suggested that it came from outside our solar system, potentially marking the third discovery of an interstellar object

“Things we’ll never know” science fair highlights US’ canceled research

Washington, DC — From a distance, the gathering looked like a standard poster session at an academic conference, with researchers standing next to large displays of the work they were doing. Except in this case, it was taking place in the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill, and the researchers were describing work that they weren’t doing. Called "The things we’ll never know," the event was meant to highlight the work of researchers whose grants had been canceled by the Trump administr

Nuclear Waste Reprocessing Gains Momentum in the U.S.

The United States’ 90,000-ton stockpile of radioactive nuclear waste has long been a liability, but researchers are increasingly eyeing it as a resource. New techniques in transforming spent fuel, new nuclear fuel cycle directives from the Trump administration, and the doling out of a Biden-era $40 million research program together aim to repurpose nuclear waste on a commercial scale. In a suite of executive orders announced on May 23, U.S. President Donald Trump directed the U.S. Department of

Your Fitbit Could Become Your Post-Surgery Best Friend

A Fitbit a day just might help keep your post-surgery woes at bay. Research today finds that wearable data can predict children’s risk of health problems following a removed appendix. Scientists in Chicago conducted the study, which equipped over a hundred children with Fitbits after their appendectomy. Using a specially designed algorithm, the Fitbits accurately detected whether children would develop postoperative complications, often days before they were formally diagnosed. The findings sug

Google’s Sergey Brin Calls U.N. Report on Big Tech’s Relationship With Israel ‘Antisemitic’

Last month, the United Nations released a report alleging that many major global corporations, including several Big Tech companies, have profited off of Israel’s ongoing genocidal assault on Gaza because of their insistence on continuing to do business with the Israeli government and military. In response, according to internal messages seen by the Washington Post, Google co-founder Sergey Brin told employees that the U.N. is “transparently antisemitic.” Cool. Brin’s response came in an intern

Why the AI moratorium’s defeat may signal a new political era

Granted, there’s an argument to be made that the moratorium’s defeat was highly contingent. Blackburn appears to have been motivated almost entirely by concerns about children’s online safety and the rights of country musicians to control their own likenesses; state lawmakers, meanwhile, were affronted by the federal government’s attempt to defang legislation that they had already passed. And even though powerful technology firms such as Andreessen Horowitz and OpenAI reportedly lobbied in favo

Bitcoin Depot breach exposes data of nearly 27,000 crypto users

Bitcoin Depot, an operator of Bitcoin ATMs, is notifying customers of a data breach incident that has exposed their sensitive information. In the letter sent to affected individuals, the company informs that it first detected suspicious activity on its network last year on June 23. Although the internal investigation was completed on July 18, 2024, a parallel investigation by federal agencies dictated that public disclosure of the incident should be withheld until it was completed. “On July 1

This Linux distro makes openSUSE accessible to all - even newbies should take a look

Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET OpenSUSE is a powerful operating system, but I still haven't recommended it to new Linux users. Why? It's too powerful, and it doesn't include essential day-to-day software. That's a shame, because openSUSE is also very reliable, stable, and secure. Fortunately, Antônio Medeiros has created a spin of openSUSE that's more accessible for less-experienced users. That distribution is Linux Kamarada, and it offers the power of openSUSE with the ease of us

Mysterious Signals From Deep Space Expose Aftermath of Failed Cosmic Eruptions

Whenever we study space, we’re usually talking about long-lasting objects, like our own solar system or faraway galaxies that occasionally catch our attention when something extraordinary happens. But sometimes, the universe sends us quick, random bursts of energy that are usually too far away and too ephemeral for scientists to make any sense of—like fast X-ray transients (FXTs), whose elusive origins have long evaded astronomers. Recently, however, astrophysicists had a lucky strike: spotting
